Sagamore Hills Township sits in the southern part of Summit County, surrounded by the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The township's wooded lots and quiet streets are built on the same glacial clay soil that makes all of Summit County a high-radon area. We provide certified radon testing and mitigation for Sagamore Hills homeowners.
Why Sagamore Hills Has Elevated Radon
Sagamore Hills' proximity to the Cuyahoga Valley means its geology includes deep glacial deposits and fractured bedrock that produce and channel radon gas. The township's homes along Boyden Road, Sagamore Road, and W. Valley Drive sit on undisturbed soil that has not been graded or compacted by large-scale development — conditions that allow radon to migrate freely toward foundation openings.
Many Sagamore Hills homes were built in the 1960s-80s with block foundations and partial crawl spaces. These construction types are more susceptible to radon entry because block walls have mortar joints that develop gaps over time, and crawl spaces with exposed dirt floors provide a direct pathway for soil gas.

Crawl Spaces in Sagamore Hills Homes
A significant number of Sagamore Hills homes have partial or full crawl spaces, especially the older ranch and split-level homes along the township's western corridors. These crawl spaces are often the primary source of radon entry. Our crawl space radon solutions include heavy-duty vapor barrier installation and sub-membrane depressurization systems that address both radon and moisture problems simultaneously.
